Replicas (2018) is a sci-fiction cum thriller movie by Jeffery Nachmanoff. Keanu Reeves is one of the producers for this film. It is about the crossing the boundaries between life and death scientifically.Apparently the movie is a disaster in box office. The movie's budget is 3 crores USD but the collection is just 96 lakhs USD (wiki).
An intelligent scientist (Reeves) lost his family in a crash. He tried to bring back.his family alive as a clone by using the technique called the neural imprint. It is just like the photocopy of a human brain with his consciousness. He cloned their neural imprints with their exact bodies. His boss wanted to make it as a business. Finally, the ended with numerous unanswered questions.
From my point of view, the movie contains an intellectual concept and this concept is enough for an action packed magnificient thriller. Everything is going well without any lagging. They give importance for the story and character's emotional aspects but not for the action and chasing scenes.
The director's focus is in the logic behind the clone. He tries to convey the concept to the audience. He gives much importance to background and every detailing which is different from other sci-fic movies. Reeves has its own style of choosing the stories like THE MATRIX, THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL etc. Those movies create strong impact due to the climax scenes but this movie lacks numerous answers to the questions.
They are saying in this scientific world these things are ordinary but it is not for common people. The director gives plain climax at the end which does not create any impact and it is illogical. Overall, the film is good to watch and worth to spend your time but it will not fullfill your expeactations like his other movies.
IMDB 5.5/10
SHARKZ SCALE 6/10
